THE TAKE

Trefl Sopot of Poland and Ukrainian champ BC Donetsk will meet this week in a Group B crunch-time clash for both. Sopot is still winless and has only the slimmest of chances of progressing, so desperately needs a win. At 1-2, Donetsk is not doing much better so far this season. In the match played a week ago, Donetsk took a narrow 92-87 win in overtime, forcing Sopot to commit 17 turnovers. Another key was the offensive rebounding that the Polish side allowed Donetsk to dominate 14 to 9. An adjustment of strategy and focus under the glass is required now for Sopot, including better boxing out from big men Kurt Looby, Sime Spralja and Filip Dilewicz. That will be needed in order to keep D'Or Fischer, Ivan Radenovic and Kaloyan Ivanov at bay. Speed and quickness from Sopot’s Frank Turner will be matched against the size of Doron Perkins at point guard in an intriguing battle. Containing Sopot’s long-distance shooters will be a big worry for Donetsk, in a match with pressure on both sides.

Quotes Head Coaches

NIEDBASLKI, MARIUSZ
Trefl Sopot
"For this moment our chances to advance to the second round are just mathematical. We will do our best to win at least one game in this edition of the Eurocup. Teams that we compete with are on the highest European level, so even one win would be prestigious for our club. In Donetsk we were very close and I hope if we grab more rebounds we will be in good position to win this one at our home court."

Players

TURNER, FRANK
Trefl Sopot
"Wednesday's game against Donetsk should be a good one. They are a very good team with good experienced players, but we will accept nothing but a victory for Trefl Sopot. Last game against them was a close one and we feel like this next game will be another good game. Biggest keys are to stay consistent on defense and rebound the ball. We are looking forward to possibly getting our first EuroCcp win on our own home floor."
Trefl Sopot registered its first-ever Eurocup win by rallying from a 19-point deficit to top BC Donetsk 77-67 in Group E in Ergo Arena, Poland on Wednesday. Both teams are tied at 1-3 in Group E but Sopot is third and Donetsk fourth due to its tie-break advantage. Donetsk beat Sopot by 5 points, 92-87, a week ago. Filip Dylewicz paced the winners with 20 points. Sime Spralja added 11 while Frank Turner, Przemyslaw Zamojski and Michal Michalak each had 10 for Sopot. Vojdan Stojanovski led Donetsk with 15 points and Darius Songaila added 14. A 1-15 run that Ivan Radenovic capped with a layup allowed Donetsk to get an early 3-15 lead. Dylewicz and Spralja fueled a 12-0 run that allowed Sopot to get a 20-17 lead after 10 minutes. As many as five different Donetsk players struck from downtown in the second quarter, allowing the guests to restore a double-digit lead, 34-45, at halftime. Donetsk used an 0-8 run to get its biggest lead, 34-53, right after the break. Spralja, Turner and Dylewicz fueled the hosts' comeback and free throws by Stefanski completed it, 62-60, early in the fourth quarter. Sopot soon boosted its margin to 70-62 and never looked back.

Dylewicz got Sopot going with a layup but he didn't find much help around for the next 4 minutes. Meanwhile, back-to-back baskets by Songaila ignited a 1-15 run highlighted by Denis Lukashov's three-pointer and which Radenovic capped with a layup for a 3-15 score. Dylewicz struck from downtown and Spralja bettered Stojanovski's jumper with his own three-pointer. Adam Waczynski shined with a three-point play and a jumper by Turner forced Donetsk to call timeout at 14-17. Dylewicz and Spralja capped a 12-0 run that allowed Sopot to regain the lead, 20-17, after 10 minutes. Kaloyan Ivanov buried a triple early in the second quarter but Marcin Stefanski and Michalak gave Sopot a 24-20 edge. Back-to-back triples by Maksym Pustozvonov and Ivanov provided another lead change, 24-26. Songaila scored down low but Stefanski and Michalak tied it at 28-28. Stojanovski and Ramel Curry joined the three-point shootout in an 0-11 run that boosted Donetsk' lead back to double digits, 28-39. Zamojski and Kurt Looby stepped up with respective layups but Songaila and Oleksandr Lypovyy allowed Donetsk to keep a 34-45 edge at halftime.

Lukashov hit a jumper right after the break, igniting a 0-8 run that Songaila capped with a layup off a steal that made it a 19-point game, 34-53. Sopot improved its defense, forcing Donetsk to go scoreless for more than 4 minutes. Meanwhile, back-to-back layups by Spralja started a 12-0 run in which Dylewicz and Turner had 4 points apiece to bring the hosts back to life, 46-53. Curry nailed one from downtown but a jumper by Stefanski and a layup-and-foul by Turner brought Sopot even closer, 51-56. A dunk by D'or Fischer and a put-back basket by Piotr Dabrowski fixed the score at 53-58 after 30 minutes. Zamojski nailed a three-pointer early in the fourth quarter and soon added a jumper to tie the game, 58-58. Fischer hit a mid-range shot that Dylewicz matched at the other end. Free throws by Stefanski completed Sopot's comeback, 62-60, with under 7 minutes to go. Stefanski scored again and a layup by Junior Harrington sent the crowd to their feet at 66-60. Donetsk called timeout but Dylewicz capped a 17-2 Sopot run with a layup. Donetsk struggled to score for more than 4 minutes until Curry nailed a jumper but it was already too little, too late for the guests. Sopot kept full control of the game and cruised to a historical win.

Head Coaches

NIEDBASLKI, MARIUSZ
Trefl Sopot
"We really needed this win. We hope that this will calm the atmosphere around the team and will let us focus on practice and games. Today many interesting things happened. We had very bad first half. Donetsk read our pick-and-roll defense and this let them shoot open three-point shots. The key thing for us was changing this defense in the second half. The second important thing today was closing their inside game, especially stopping points from Songaila in the second half. Marcin Stefanski did great job of that. We are really happy about this win, although we weren’t successful from the three point line. Now we have to focus on our next game. "
BERROCAL, JOSEP MARIA
BC Donetsk
"My opinion is very simple. It was two halves of the game. In the second and third quarter, we played very good and we had a lead. In other parts of the game we didn’t move the ball in offense and we took too many three-point shots. Trefl also scored too many points from fast breaks, which we tried to stop with fouls. This let the home team recover and win the game. We showed today two faces of our game. One good one and one terrible one. "

Players

STEFANSKI, MARCIN
Trefl Sopot
" After five games in a row, it is good to be back home and win a game. We are really happy about it. We won this game because we were more aggressive than our opponent. We had more offensive rebounds. We also shot more free throws. That shows how much we wanted to win this game. We wanted to show our best in front of our fans and I think we succeeded. "
SONGAILA, DARIUS
BC Donetsk
"It was up-and-down game. Coach was right. We played one quarter very good, one quarter very bad. Today they were more aggressive. We took only 4 shots from the free throw line, while Trefl took 21 shots. This was the key thing in the fourth quarter. "
